Arsenal vs Rennes: Sport pundit gives prediction

The Gunners will tonight host Rennes at Emirate Stadium in the return leg of the UEL.

Arsenal will head to the game with full confidence after their recent victory over Man Utd at Emirate Stadium in the EPL.

However, Sport Pundit, Charlie Nicolas has given his prediction on the outcome of the match.

Charlie Nicolas in a statement on Sky Sport said, “I was questioning the goalkeeper with an inconsistent defence in front of him but he has been excellent in recent weeks. Leno is quite bold and tries to play out from the back. He blocks with the boot rather than his hands a lot of the timebut it works very well for him. He will make mistakes but who doesn’t? Arsenal have signed a top-class goalkeeper I feel.

Lucas Torreira will probably play again after being suspended for the United win but with no Alexandre Lacazette, who is suspended, I would play Alex Iwobi with Mesut Ozil and Aaron Ramsey. There was pace, commitment and togetherness in there against United.

Play the same system and I expect Arsenal to go through. The away goal they scored in France will prove to be crucial in my opinion.”
